Malta - 5 nts Short Break
Some of the other places we visited were, Marsascala - a more sleepy town with pavement cafes, Mellieha were there is a war museum and a sandy beach with some nice restaurants and cafes. Although Malta is not popular for it's beaches, there are a few scattered around the Island and Paradise Bay is probably the best one. Just past Mellieha we got the Ferry to Gozo which seemed lovely. A tiny version of Malta. Further on we found the Popeye village, which is lovely for Families and I believe at Christmas they do it up as a Christmas Village. We also visited the Play Mobil factory which is great fun for Children. All of their toys are on display for Children to play and there's a cafe and playground too. There is a Dolphin Park between St Pauls & St Julians on the main road and you can see Dolphin shows and swim with the Dolphins if you are a bit adventurous. There are also some other birds and animals too.
I found that accommodation is quite basic, but clean but of course there are also many 5 star hotels on the island. The local people are very friendly and all speak English.
Malta is big on scuba diving and my Husband enjoyed a dive there with one of the PADI centres. We did plenty more during our 5 night visit and I would definitely recommend this Island as a holiday destination.
Why not see for yourself????
